of the entire campus - over 66 kilometers of fiber, connecting all cellular RF transceivers to form a truly cloud-based radio access network (C-RAN) - 3 single-frequency-network (SFN) digital broadcasting stations - 2500+ WiFi APs across the campus The broadcasting system, the cellular system, and the WiFi system work collaboratively provide a high-speed data and media delivery services to trial mobile users/clients that include students and faculty, campus shuttles, wireless surveillance cameras, EVs, etc. The users under the coverage of the converged network can receive services from both the broadcasting system and the cellular/WiFi system. Specifically for the content delivery applications, the three wireless systems are *converged to form a push-based service platform,* so that the multimedia contents can be delivered to the users via: i) broadcastingwith pushing and caching, and/or ii) unicast delivery through cellular/WiFi networks. A *content scheduler* is utilized to update the pushing list which is comprised of the most popular contents [@GC_Conver]. In Fig.\[capacity\], the number of users per cell supported in the push-based converged network is simulated. Here, the Zipf distribution is used to characterize the content popularity distribution, in which the Zipf parameter (e.g., 0.5 or 1) determines how diverse the contents are. The popularity would become more skewed with the larger Zipf parameter. The results clearly show that the push-based converged network can bring potentially *multifold* benefits in terms of content delivery capacity as we moderately increase the broadcasting bandwidth. We also see that the more “concentrated” the contents are, the more gains the push-based converged network

The relationship between hypertension and obesity across different ethnicities. Hypertension and obesity are major contributors to cardiovascular disease, and the relationship between these conditions is known to vary among ethnicities. However, this relationship has not previously been examined in aboriginal populations. The present investigation aimed to identify and compare this relationship among white (n = 3566), aboriginal (n = 850), East Asian (n = 446), and South Asian (n = 222) individuals from the province of British Columbia, Canada. Blood pressure, BMI, and waist circumference were directly measured along with self-reported antihypertensive medication usage. Relative risk ratios were calculated to evaluate the risk of hypertension among individuals of varying BMI and waist circumference measurements. The relative risks of hypertension were compared both within and between four ethnic groups. Greater let app = prefix.appending(components: (appString ??

in ’91 after a 15-year career, he left as the game’s ninth all-time leading scorer, with 23,177 points, a career field goal shooting percentage of .540-one of the best ever for a non-center-and the distinction of averaging 30-plus ppg for four straight seasons. Overall, he averaged 24.3 ppg and, though his critics tagged him a one-dimensional player, he also averaged 5.7 rpg and 3 apg. All this from a 6-5, 210-pound forward, who, as Dumars noted, couldn’t jump all that well yet scored thousands of points around the basket. “I posted up, but not as much as people think,” Dantley says. “I often got the ball at the foul line and either drove or shot jumpers.” He also feasted at the foul line, thanks to an uncanny ability to initiateif crowded, he would take it to the hoop, his deceptively explosive first step giving him an edge over almost anyone. Yet despite his great play and consistency, AD has never gotten his props. Never even come close, really. When the NBA made its nifty 50 a few years back, he was left off, along with fellow ace forwards Bernard King, Dominique Wilkins, Bob McAdoo and Alex English. Absurdly, he has yet to be elected to the Hall of Fame, helping insure that his name is too infrequently mentioned and too easily forgotten. But the people who know know about AD-think KG, think Joe D, think Dott. One of the reasons that Dantley is not more widely remembered is that he never won a ring, a criteria used to measure

re Stac Elecs. Secs. Litig., 89 F.3d 1399, 1403-04 (9th Cir.1996)) (internal quotations omitted). Defendants argue that plaintiff's have failed to plead that the alleged misstatements and omissions were material and that plaintiffs do not qualify as persons "purchasing" securities pursuant to a registration statement because the plaintiff's acquired their bonds through an exempt Rule 144A private transaction followed by an Exxon Capital exchange. Defendants assert that lead plaintiffs Detroit General and Metzler Investment lack standing to sue under § 11 either for their initial purchase of unregistered bonds in the private placement pursuant to 17 C.F.R. § 230.144A ("Rule 144A") or to the subsequent exchange of the unregistered bonds for publicly registered bonds pursuant to the exchange offering. Defendants also argue that the heightened pleading standard of Fed.R.Civ.P.if it is established with certainty that the plaintiff's are not harmed in any way by the relevant misrepresentations, plaintiffs should not be allowed any recovery under § 11 as a matter of law based on either a lack of materiality or a lack of reliance. Id. Therefore, the Refco court concluded, the relevant question is what the unregistered bondholders, who already owned non-tradeable shares of Refco, "could have done differently had the registration statement been fully candid about Refco's alleged foul deeds and dreadful prospects." Id. at 634-35. The court found that the plaintiff's had not alleged that the unregistered bondholders would have been any less likely to go through with the Exxon Capital exchange had the registration statement been accurate. In particular, based on the nature of

at issue it the present action, the 7547 Corp. plaintiff's' former partnerships were liquidated and converted into the equivalent value of stock. Therefore, the court concludes that the alleged misstatements and omissions would not have been material to the, unregistered bondholders' decision whether to exchange unregistered shares they had already chosen to purchase pursuant to the Rule 144A offering documents. Because the unregistered bondholders had already invested in Levi bonds through the Rule 144A offerings, they were not presented with the decision of whether or not to purchase Levi bonds pursuant to the registration statement. Compare In re Livent Noteholders Sec. Litig., 174 F.Supp.2d 144, 157 (S.D.N.Y.2001) ("Livent II") (allowing plaintiff noteholders' § 11 claim against defendant and underwriter CIBC where the complaint alleged that plaintiff's and other publicplaintiff's' § 11 claims fail: In a case where fraud is not an essential element of a claim, only allegations of fraudulent conduct must satisfy the heightened pleading requirements of Rule 9(b). Allegations of non-fraudulent conduct need satisfy only the ordinary notice pleading standards of Rule 8(a). . . . Where averments of fraud are made in a claim in which fraud is not an element, an inadequate averment of fraud does not mean that no claim has been stated. The proper route is to disregard averments of fraud not meeting Rule 9(b)'s standard and then ask whether a claim has been stated. Id. at 1027 (internal citations and quotations omitted).

Plaintiff's assert that the first requirement is met because they have pled that they acquired Levi's registered bonds by means of Levi's prospectuses, that those prospectuses reported false financial statements, and that the false financial information were material. Id. at 24:10-14 (citing CAC ¶¶ 3, 15-17, 65-68, 70-73). However, as discussed in § II.A.2 above, those plaintiffs who exchanged unregistered bonds for registered bonds did not purchase their bonds pursuant to a registration statement. For the same reasons, these plaintiffs did not purchase their bonds pursuant to a prospectus. Rather, their purchases of Levi bonds were made pursuant to private offerings exempt from1250); see also GlenFed, 42 F.3d at 1548. KPMG reaudited Levi's financial statements for 2001, 2002, and the first half of 2003 after it replaced Levi's former auditors. KPMG audited Levi's 2003 financial statements. As a result of KPMG's audits, Levi was required to restate its financial statements. In October 2003 and March 2004 Levi announced that it would restate its financial statements for 2001, 2002, and the first two quarters of 2003 in several respects. Two of the restatements related to tax matters: . a $24 million increase in tax expense and tax liability in 2001 resulting from a tax deduction taken twice in error for losses related to closures of various plants; and . a $19 million increase in tax expense in 2001 and 2002 to properly provide for

2002. "Violations of GAAP standards . . . could provide evidence of scienter." Greebel v. FTP Software, Inc., 194 F.3d 185, 203 (1st Cir.1999). Nevertheless, although Levi misstated its 2001 and 2002 financial statements by failing to record a proper valuation allowance, it is unclear from plaintiffs' allegations that such failure was intentional or deliberately reckless. Notably, although plaintiffs point to testimony by Schmidt and Walsh, none of those allegations relates to decisions to understate the valuation allowance for foreign net operating loss carryforwards. Rather, plaintiffs' allegations relate to purported improper establishing, maintaining, and release of excess tax reserves, failure to record valuation allowances for deferred tax assets consisting of foreign tax credits, and engaging in purportedly fraudulent tax shelters and schemes. As such, the court finds thatplaintiffs' complaint has failed to allege with particularity a strong showing of scienter with respect to defendants' misstatement of its valuation allowance for foreign net operating loss carryforwards in 2001 and 2002.[22], [23]See Tellabs, 127 S.Ct. at 2510 ("To determine whether the plaintiff has alleged facts that give rise to the requisite `strong inference' of scienter, a court must consider plausible nonculpable explanations for the defendant's conduct, as well as inferences favoring the plaintiff."). 3. Increase in Valuation Allowance in 2003 Plaintiff's also argue that the significant increase in Levi's valuation allowance in 2003 support a conclusion that Levi fraudulently understated its valuation allowance in previous years. The court is unpersuaded. Plaintiffs allege that Levi increased its deferred tax asset valuation allowance account from $32.7 million at the end of

I demanded. "Nothing." He tried to hand me back the photos, but they fell on the ground. Avoiding my eyes, he swiftly wrenched the door away and slammed it shut. "Can't you tell me anything?" I pleaded. "Did you recognize anybody?" "Scram!" "Thanks for nothing!" I snarled, suddenly deeply exhausted, frustrated, and extremely angry. I dropped to my knees and started to scoop up the fallen photos. Chardé and Buddy. Sukie and Eliot. Michaela and Arch. I gasped and my blood ran to ice.

The living room, a spare, austere arrangement of old—not antique—furniture, consisted of a couch and one chair. A threadbare green rug lay on the floor. There was no coffee table, only two mismatched end tables. But brightly colored crocheted afghans and an assortment of garage-sale pillows gave the room a comfortable feel.

students more often wrote a narrative that used the past tense, whereas second grade students more often wrote a present tense description of the picture. This distinction is important, because use of the past tense of regular verbs requires a greater knowledge of MC words, mainly the addition of the inflectional morpheme --*ed*. The number of students using past tense, as well as the number of students using compound words, increased from second to third grade. It is also worth noting that the second graders made more errors in using MC words than third graders. Finally, Carlisle found a significant correlation between a morphological awareness task and the accuracy of use of MC words in the spontaneous writing task (*r* = .54). Green et al. ([@CR25]) examined differences in writing amongdifferent verbs with --*ed* added to them, or a participant could have repeated the same verb with an --*ed* 5 times. We believe these two situations reflect differences in knowledge, so we wanted to analyze the number of unique instances. First, we conducted analyses using the various inflected forms. We conducted a 2 (Age: Adult vs. Child) × 2 (Task: Oral vs. Written) × 4 (Form: plural, -*ing*, -*ed*, -*s*[2](#Fn2){ref-type="fn"}) mixed measures ANOVA in which Age was the independent groups variable and Task and Form were repeated measures. The dependent variable was the number of times the participant uniquely used a particular inflected form. For all ANOVAs, significant effects were followed up using post hoc analyses with a Bonferroni correction. See Table [2](#Tab2){ref-type="table"} and Fig. [1](#Fig1){ref-type="fig"} for means and standard errors. While there was no

See Table [4](#Tab4){ref-type="table"} for *R*^2^, *β*, and *t*-values. When non-word decoding was the outcome variable, the use of MC words explained a significant amount of the variance for both the adults, *R*^2^ = .20, *F*(2,58) = 7.33, *MSe* = 46.53, *p* = .001, and the children, *R*^2^ = .22, *F*(2,54) = 7.39, *MSe* = 39.90, *p* = .001. As can be seen in Table [4](#Tab4){ref-type="table"}, for both groups of participants, the MC written total variable was a unique predictor of non-word decoding. MC totals also explained a significant portion of the variance in morphological awareness for both the adults, *R*^2^ = .13,the adults on decoding ability. We assessed both oral and written stories to determine if the written narratives, which are cognitively more demanding, would mask some of the production of these complex words. In addition, we collected data on other tasks that reflect reading and writing development. We have several interesting findings. Both adults and children were more likely to produce MC words in their oral stories compared to their written ones. While children were much more skilled at using --*ed* forms to produce past tense verbs than adults, adults were more likely to add --*s* to a verb and to produce contractions. Children and adults were comparable in pluralizing words, adding --*ing* to verbs, and producing derived MC words. For the literacy measures, interestingly, adults always outperformed

on producing derived words in their stories. Since adults outperformed children on the morphological awareness tasks, it is surprising that we did not see the implicit awareness skills translating to explicit production. That is, based on the morphological awareness tasks, we would have predicted that adults would have been able to call on this knowledge to produce more MC words than children in their stories. If adult learners have this skill, why are they less likely to use MC words in their written and oral stories? One explanation could have to do with the nature of the two types of tasks. In the morphological awareness tasks, the format is much more constrained than in the storytelling tasks. The awareness tasks explicitly encourage participants to tap into a specific skillsauce.

calling for Jetstar to drop its "deceitful ripoff $8.50 credit-card surcharge for booking online". The ACCC is pursuing airline companies for heavy gouging on credit card fees. Visa and MasterCard have also accused taxi payment companies and utilities of overcharging for card transactions. A spokeswoman for Visa said it supports a ban on surcharging but would not comment on the interchange fee proposal. "Visa supports government action on excessive merchant surcharging," said Stephen Karpin, group country manager for Visa in Australia and New Zealand. "Excessive surcharging is an unfair cost on consumers. Consumers should not be penalised at the checkout when they choose to pay with an efficient, fast and secure credit or debit card. Visa has been actively working with merchants and financial institutions to reduce excessive surcharging since the RBAintroduced guidelines in March 2013, limiting surcharging to the reasonable cost of acceptance. However, it is clear the current system has not worked." The big banks declined to comment before the Murray inquiry report release on Sunday. As well as the cap, Murray has recommended changes that will push down the fees below the cap, especially on smaller transactions. Consumer group Choice welcomed reports that a government review of the financial sector would recommend a limit on excessive surcharges on credit and debit card transactions, but said it would keep an eye on big business to ensure the losses were not recouped in other fees. "Nothing would surprise us when it comes to business and fees," spokesman Tom Godfrey said. "We saw earlier this year when it came to credit card late

Mr Godfrey said the proposed changes were long overdue and that any limits imposed by the government needed to be backed by a regulatory body to ensure compliance. "This is not actually about the costs of the product, this is profiteering plain and simple.

The processor may also perform one or more functions based on the tags presence in its RF field. For example, RF tags are used by airlines to track passenger luggage. When a passenger checks a piece of luggage it is tagged with an RF ID tag programmed with an identifier for that piece of luggage. When the luggage tag comes within the RF signal field of one of many RF ID readers located throughout the luggage system, the tag may be interrogated by the reader and the location of the luggage may be reported to a central tracking system by the reader""s processor.

Moments after the earthquake struck, the Benedictine monks commandeered a car and sped down to Norcia. Their first thought was not the fate of their brewery or the basilica, but that of the cloistered Franciscan nuns, known as the Poor Clares, who lived near the basilica.

COPD, specifically those variables that contribute to risk assessment of patients in the community (ie, not hospitalized) for death within 12 months. We sought in particular to identify variables and tools that could be used in primary care at an "annual review" or stable COPD visit. No ethical approval was required, since this study is a synthesis of published studies. The details of the protocol including the search terms used and all inclusion and exclusion criteria have been registered and published[@b23-copd-12-2239] and can be found at [www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROS-PERO](http://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROS-PERO) (registration number CRD42016033866). We included studies of adults ≥35 years old with stable COPD with the outcome of interest of all-cause mortality. We excluded studies of patients with alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency, or those who had undergone lung transplantation, lung volume reduction surgery ornot perform well when used to attempt to predict 1-year mortality.[@b46-copd-12-2239] In view of the fact that COPD is a heterogeneous multisystem disorder, we have perhaps expected too much from any one variable or index. From a methodological point of view, there is no reason to expect a prognostic score developed in one population for one purpose to perform well when applied to another population over a different time period. In contrast to calls for "no more risk scores," the academic or clinical community perhaps needs to reach a consensus on which indices should be adopted systematically into practice for which purposes, and which questions are as yet unanswered by available tools. The discussion as to whether age should be included in prognostic indices is also relevant here,

Further, in recent years, a method of recording visual information on a visual information recording layer formed on a label face side of a medium by irradiation with a laser beam has been reported (e.g. JP-A-2000-173096, JP-A-2001-283464), which is expected as a method of recording visual information without exerting mechanical influences over a medium. The above method of recording visual information on a label face side of a medium by means of a laser beam, as reported in JP-A-2000-173096 and JP-A-2001-283464, has the following drawbacks.

medium by means of a laser beam utilizes a change such as a reaction, melting or precipitation due to heat, and thus excessive irradiation with a laser beam will have a thermal influence or the like over the electronic information recorded on a medium, and accordingly careful attention has to be paid to an irradiation method. Accordingly, in order to reduce a thermal influence over a medium, it is necessary to use a laser beam with a low output at a level of from 10 to 200 mW. When such a low output laser beam is used, it is effective to efficiently concentrate the energy of the laser beam by condensing the low output laser beam on a layer (visual information recording layer) on which visual information isis formed preferably to have a refractive index of at least 0.4 and at most 2.6. Further, the visual information recording layer is characterized by being formed by such a material that its color developing properties or its transparency changes by a laser beam applied to a visual information recording layer. Further, the optical information recording medium of the present invention is an optical information recording medium comprising a substrate, and an electronic information recording layer on which digital information is to be recorded by means of a laser beam to be applied from the substrate side, a reflective layer formed on the opposite side of the electronic information recording layer from the substrate side, and a protective layer formed on the opposite side of the reflective layer from

London riots: Beyond jobs & welfare The violence is directed toward innocent, ordinary people also struggling to keep their heads above water in these difficult times. LONDON—On Monday night, my husband and I were heading home to Camden, northwest of the capital. We were aware of the riots in nearby Tottenham and Hackney (northeast London) but things looked fine in the streets around us. Then we sat in the bus and heard a young man on his mobile phone, asking his friends to meet up in front of a local sports shop on Camden high street. We saw a phalanx of police vans as we got off. Lock Tavern pub attacked by rioters. We were eating near the windows when they started throwing bricks and rocks at the windows. We suspected somethingpeople inside, I do not know and had no intention to find out. We ran upstairs, and in true British fashion, there was no screaming or hysterics, just repressed panic. And in true Pinoy uzi fashion, I went to the rooftop to take pictures of the street, by then occupied by about 50 police officers and their vans on one side, and the rioters on the other. After a few minutes, I thought, what if they torch this place as other rioters had done elsewhere? I rushed back inside and was flabbergasted to find my husband asking the bar staff politely if we could please have our dinners.

(JHFT) \[[@CR5]\]. Our results demonstrate that the system provides reliable measurements over time and that performance correlates with established outcome measures. The results indicate that the novel system can deliver simple and reliable longitudinal evaluation of upper extremity function after cSCI and may provide a framework to assess the efficacy of strategies aimed at improving recovery of upper limb function. Methods {#Sec2} ======= Study design {#Sec3} ------------ All procedures were approved by the Institutional Review Board at the University of Texas at Dallas. Fifteen participants with cSCI and no known cognitive deficits were recruited, and nine completed all components of the study. All participants had motor impairments in the right upper limb with some residual function. Participants with cSCI were assessed on at least four separate occasions, with each session lasting between 30 minwere instructed to give their best effort on each trial, then return to and relax at the neutral position between trials. Any trials with obvious compensatory movement were excluded and repeated after providing verbal feedback. Standard assessments {#Sec6} -------------------- cSCI participants were tested with the GRASSP and JHFT exams, two established functional arm assessments suited to the injury \[[@CR5]\]. Both assessments were administered by trained medical professionals with certified equipment and according to standard procedures \[[@CR7], [@CR19]\]. The total GRASSP score ranges from 0 to 116 points for one arm and is comprised of the sum of four subscores that quantify muscle strength, finger sensation, grip dexterity and functional task performance.

Commercial isometric strength gauges were used in the rehabilitative device test sessions to measure peak grip and pinch force for the right hand. A digital dynamometer (Fabrication Enterprises Inc., 1335 N capacity, 4.45 N resolution) was used to measure power grip strength and a digital pinch gauge (Fabrication Enterprises Inc., 222 N capacity, 0.445 N resolution) was used to measure lateral pinch force. Three trials were acquired and averaged with each device \[[@CR20]\].

and meaningful help to people who are injured and who can’t help themselves. I know this from personal experience. My father was a personal-injury lawyer. He put food on our family’s table by helping people who were injured in car crashes, or otherwise through the negligence of someone else. I’ve personally brought personal-injury actions as a lawyer on behalf of low-income clients attempting to seek justice. I have great respect for the work of personal-injury lawyers and I understand that they are only working to maximize the interests of their client within the system as it stands. I also appreciate the concern that some lawyers have about the major reforms that will be fully implemented April 1 of next year. At the risk of sounding Trump-like, we expect the financialmeasurements within a concentration range lower than 5% by volume. A disadvantage of electrochemical sensors is the sensitivity which decreases over the time (aging effect). This effect is caused by the degradation of the electrolyte as well as by side reactions on the electrodes. A shortening of the service time must be expected also in the case of an over-saturation of the electrolyte when the hydrogen concentrations are very high. In the presence of high water steam concentrations corrosion on the electronics and/or the blocking of the diaphragm accompanied by a clear deceleration of the response time may occur due to the formation of condensate. A further principle for hydrogen detection makes use of a metal thin-film (e.g. Pd), where the measuring principle is based on a change of

Antiarrhythmic effect of bisoprolol, a highly selective beta1-blocker, in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. In the treatment of arrhythmia, beta-blockers are mainly used to regulate the heart rate. However, beta-blockers are also known as drugs with an antiarrhythmic effect due to the suppression of sympathetic activity. We evaluated the antiarrhythmic effects of a highly selective beta(1)-blocker, bisoprolol, in patients with diurnal paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (P-AF). A total of 136 patients with symptomatic diurnal P-AF were enrolled. Patients were divided into a diurnal-specific P-AF group and a diurnal & nocturnal P-AF group, as well as into a bisoprolol single use group and a combined use group with an antiarrhythmic drug. The effects of bisoprolol were evaluated in 3 categories: subjective symptom improvement, quality of life (QOL) improvement, and elimination of $(3,3)\to(5,3)$ **Robber labels** **Cop labels** ------------------- ----------------- $(4.5,2)\to(5,0)$ $(5,3)\to(5,1)$ $(4.5,2)\to(5,0)$ $(3,3)\to(3,1)$ $(5,0)\to(4.5,2)$ $(7,1)\to(5,1)$ $(4.5,2)\to(4,4)$ $(5,1)\to(5,3)$ $(4.5,2)\to(4,4)$ $(3,1)\to(3,3)$ $(4,4)\to(4.5,2)$ $(5,5)\to(5,3)$ $(4,4)\to(4.5,2)$ $(3,5)\to(3,3)$ Finally, under the additional assumption that no three cops in $S$ guard hexagons that are all adjacent to the same hexagon, we shall prove that player $C$ (Cops) can move the cops in $S$ as stipulated above to preserve the invariant, such that after finitely many turns the game will reach a state where it is $C$’s turn and $C$ does not need to move any cop in $S$ to preserve the invariant (i.e.

nuclear modifications of parton distributions in the initial state [@Garvey:2002sn]. Finally, hadron quenching is an important source of systematic uncertainty in neutrino oscillation experiments such as MINOS, which use nuclear targets and need to reconstruct the event’s kinematic from the hadronic final state [@Adamson:2008zt; @Dytman:2008st]. ![Sketch of the time evolution of the hadronization process with definition of the relevant time scales. A quark $q$ created at time 0 in a hard collision turns into a colored prehadron $h_*^c$, which subsequently neutralizes its color, $h_*^0$, and collapses on the wave function of the observed hadron $h$.[]{data-label="fig:hadrosketch"}](hadronization.eps){width="\linewidth"} Understanding and modeling nuclear modifications of hadron production requires knowledge of the space-time evolution of the hadronization process [@Accardi:2006ea]. However, hadronization is a non perturbative process, and its theoretical understanding is still in its infancy:coefficient $C$ in Eq. , is the hadron’s transverse momentum broadening in DIS on a nuclear target compared to a proton or deuteron target [@Kopeliovich:2003py; @Kopeliovich:2006xy], $$\begin{aligned} \Delta{\langle p_T^2 \rangle} = {\langle p_T^2 \rangle}_A - {\langle p_T^2 \rangle}_D \ .\end{aligned}$$ When a hadron is observed in the final state, neither the quark nor the prehadron from which it originates could have had inelastic scatterings. Since the prehadron-nucleon elastic cross section is very small compared to the quark cross section, the hadron’s $p_T$-broadening originates dominantly during parton propagation. As shown in [@Baier:1996sk; @Johnson:2000dm], the quark’s momentum broadening $\Delta{\langle p_T^2 \rangle}$ is proportional to the quark path-length in the nucleus.

Q: Java: Async MongoTemplate / MongoOperation Is there a way to insert something asynchronously into mongodb? I know that mongodb is fairly quick in most cases, but thought maybe I can save some milliseconds by returning as soon as the command is given. It is for those use cases where you connect to the server to send mongodb a command to insert something. You want to return back to the client once the command is issued and not necessarily wait for a response from mongodb. I read the documentation: http://docs.spring.io/spring-data/mongodb/docs/current/reference/html/ It only seems to read asynchronously, not insert asychronously. A: The Spring Data MongoDB documentation only shows example of using the @Async annotation on query methods, but it is possible to use it on every method. Quoting this documentation: Repository queries can be executed asynchronously using Spring’s asynchronouscause-and-effect relationships. Third, the lack of data on chronic diseases and risk factors made this study unable to further identify diseases or risk factors associated with chronic diseases education. Future work in this direction will be particularly important to help develop public health interventions. Nonetheless, this study presents a valuable data for a future longitudinal analysis among migrants' population. Conclusion {#section18-0046958019895897} ========== Our study generated new knowledge about the chronic disease education among internal migrants in China. From 2014 to 2015, MPDMS data showed significant differences of receiving chronic disease education among different age groups and also showed provincial disparities with different level of public health care resources and internal migrants density. To enhance chronic disease education among internal migrants, local governments should increase investment on health care services. Attention should

Lipid peroxidation intensity and lipid status parameters in the estimation of the severity of ischemic heart disease. Atherosclerotic changes on the coronary arteries are the basis of the ischemic heart disease. It is assumed that the initial changes in this process occur as a consequence of the lipid peroxidation in the vessel wall. We estimated this process through the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) in the serum of 86 patients in whom selective coronary angiography was done for the suspected ischemic heart disease. According to the number of the stenotic coronary arteries (stenosis greater than 50%), we divided the patients into four groups: the control group with normal coronary angiography finding, simple, double or triple vessel coronary disease. In all the patients we also estimated the other parameters of theBoard of Directors James Willis,,, Chairman James Willis is based in Wellington, New Zealand, and has an extensive background in the oil and gas exploration and production industry particularly focused on commercial and contractual issues affecting industry participants.

At 1 microm, Trimetazidine still stimulated the phospholipid synthesis although the difference was found significant only in phosphatidyl-inositol and cardiolipid. In vivo studies (10 mg/kg per day for 7 days and 5 mg/kg, i.p. before the experiment) revealed significant changes in the intracellular lipid biosynthesis, with increased labelling of phospholipids and reduced incorporation of glycerol in nonphosphorous lipids. Trimetazidine increased the glycerol uptake from plasma to the other tissues (liver, cochlea, retina), resulting in an altered lipid synthesis. The anti-anginal properties of Trimetazidine involve a reorganisation of the glycerol-based lipid synthesis balance in cardiomyocytes, associated with an increased uptake of plasma glycerol that may contribute tonot inconsistent with the result we reach.

1. Introduction {#s0005} =============== Ginseng is a traditional Chinese medicine widely used in Asian countries. Ginsenoside compound K (GCK; 20-*O*-*β*-([d]{.smallcaps}-glucopyranosyl)-20(*S*)-protopanaxadiol; [Fig. 1](#f0005){ref-type="fig"}) is a metabolite of protopanaxadiol ginsenosides, such as Rb~1~, Rb~2~, and Rc[@bib1], [@bib2], [@bib3] produced by human intestinal bacteria after oral ingestion. Previous studies have shown that GCK exerts stronger anti-colorectal cancer activity than Rb~1~[@bib4] and exhibits antiapoptotic[@bib5], antidiabetic[@bib6], antiallergic[@bib7], anti-inflammatory[@bib8], and antiaging activities[@bib9]. Despite these promising beneficial effects, drug development of GCK is compromised by the lack of a rapid and reliable method for its quantitation in *in vivo* and *in vitro* studies. Several bioanalytical methods have been developed for GCK, but they were usually aimed at simultaneous determination of ginsenosides which are both time-consuming and relatively insensitive. The methods include high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (HPLC--UV)[@bib10],of 50.0, 150, 500, 1500, 5000, 15,000 and 50,000 ng/mL. Calibration standards for GCK were prepared by spiking 980 μL blank human plasma with 20 μL of the respective standard solutions to give final concentrations of 1.00, 3.00, 10.0, 30.0, 100, 300 and 1000 ng/mL. All solutions were stored at −80 °C until required. LLOQ (lower limit of quantitation), low, medium and high QC samples were prepared in a similar way at concentrations of 1.00, 2.00, 30.0, and 800 ng/mL respectively and also stored at −80 °C. An IS stock solution in methanol was diluted with 50% aqueous methanol to obtain a 200 ng/mL working IS solution before storage at 4 °C. 2.5. Sample preparation {#s0035} ----------------------- 200 μL water and 50 μL IS working solution were added to an aliquot of plasma. After vortex-mixing, the sample was extracted by shaking with

500 µL methyl *tert*-butyl ether for 5 min and subsequently centrifuged at 14,000×*g* for 5 min at room temperature (20 °C). The organic phase was transferred to another tube and evaporated to dryness at 40 °C under a stream of nitrogen in a TurboVap evaporator (Zymark, Hopkinton, USA). The residue was reconstituted in 200 μL 50% aqueous methanol and injected into the LC−MS/MS system. 2.6. Assay validation {#s0040} --------------------- This was carried out in accordance with EMA guidelines[@bib20]. ### 2.6.1. Selectivity {#s0045} Selectivity was evaluated by analyzing three replicates of six batches of human non-hemolyzed plasma and one batch of human hemolyzed plasma (prepared by adding 2% lysed whole blood to plasma) at the LLOQ level. The assay was considered free of interference at the retention time of GCK and IS if the response was \<20% of that ofA, but the response of the analyte was three-fold lower than using water. Similarly, the inclusion of either formic acid or acetic acid produced a two-fold reduction in analyte response. The previously reported assay of 20(*S*)-protopanaxadiol in rat plasma[@bib17] employed 25 mmol/L lithium acetate, but for GCK only 0.2 mmol/L lithium carbonate was needed to generate a stable \[M+Li\]^+^ signal, presumably because the water content of the mobile phase was relatively low. A column temperature of 40 °C and a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min also contributed to producing symmetrical peaks for GCK and paclitaxel with retention time of only 1.5 and 1.3 min, respectively. 3.3. Sample preparation {#s0095} ----------------------- Sample preparation by protein precipitation was initially evaluated, but strong matrix effects ruled it out.

over Spain using combined multiple satellite datasets and ground-based observations from five metropolitan areas in the country: Madrid (3.233.527 inhabitants), Barcelona (1.620.943 inhabitants), Valencia (797.028 inhabitants), Sevilla (702.355 inhabitants) and Bilbao (351.629 inhabitants)[@b22]. Ground-based observations in León and Ponferrada are also reported, as these relatively small cities are located in the region where satellite measurements detect the higher decrease. We assess the contribution of environmental policies and the recent severe economic recession to the observed reduction in NO~2~ levels over Spain in the last two decades. Finally, the variation of the main economic indicators of the country is compared with the measured NO~2~ levels, to infer the possible relationship between the NO~x~ emissions and the economic evolution of Spain. Results ======= Satellite-based NO~2~ observations and trends --------------------------------------------- [Figure 1](#f1){ref-type="fig"} shows averaged tropospheric NO~2~studied cities. Barcelona, Madrid, and Valencia show two well differentiated slopes for the pre-recession and recession periods (−0.5, −0.7, and −3.1/μg m^−3^ yr^−1^ in Barcelona, Madrid and Valencia, respectively, during the pre-recession period, and −0.9, −4.3, and −3.9/μg m^−3^ yr^−1^, respectively, during the recession period). In these three cases the slopes are higher during the recession period. These slopes correspond to annual decreases of 0.9%, 1.1% and 4.3 for Barcelona, Madrid and Valencia, respectively, during the pre-recession period, and 1.9%, 7.8% and 9.1%, respectively, during the economic recession. Sevilla shows similar slopes for both periods, being slightly higher during the pre-recession period (−1.7/μg m^−3^ yr^−1^) than during the economic recession (−1.5/μg m^−3^ yr^−1^). By contrast with the other cities, Bilbao shows a higher slope during the pre-recession period

72% and 75%, compared to 63% and 41% during the pre-recession period for Ponferrada and León, respectively. The general annually-averaged NO~2~ trend from both satellite and ground stations is shown in [Figure 4](#f4){ref-type="fig"}. The satellite averages have been made integrating over the entire Spanish territory in the Iberian Peninsula, while the ground stations data correspond to yearly average in the studied cities. Hence the smoother shape in the AQMN dataset, which is more affected by local effects than the satellite measurements. Note that both datasets are not directly comparable, although their combination provides a clear picture about the evolution of NO~2~levels in Spain during the last two decades. Both datasets show two distinct slopes corresponding to the pre-recession and recession periods, the slope for the last period being higher. Thepart of the Iberian Peninsula, with reductions of up to 50% in the areas of Madrid and Valencia. In general, there is a correspondence between the tendencies of on-ground and satellite data ([Figure 4](#f4){ref-type="fig"}), having two well differentiated slopes in the trends (i.e. pre-recession and economic recession periods). On the other hand, the main economic indicators were gradually increasing since 1996 until the beginning of the economic crisis in 2008, when all indicators suddenly fell. These economic metrics refer to the whole country, so satellite NO~2~ VCDs integrated over the whole Spanish territory in the Iberian Peninsula are used to assess the correlation between economic fall and NO~2~ concentrations. In general we find a good correspondence between the economic indicators and the evolution of NO~2~, as shown in [Figure

of the studied cities. Thus we regard the ground measurements as representative of the local NO~2~ levels and trends in the cities, while the satellite-based observations represent column-integrated NO~2~ levels over larger areas around the cities. The 20% emissions reduction reported by the European Union agree better with the satellite dataset, as these emissions reductions refers to the whole country rather than to specific cities or regions. The lack of correlation between the economic parameters of Spain and the levels of NO~2~ during the 2001--2007 period, with NO~2~ levels decreasing as the GDP, IP and Oil Consumption grow until 2008, shows that the improvement in the combustion technologies and environmental policies implemented to reduce the nitrogen oxides emissions are paying off.

The first floor was also used as an ossuary. The church itself, with its unique extant 14th-century murals, is on the second floor of the building. In the wake of the Ottoman conquest of Bulgaria in the late 14th century, the fortress lost its strategic importance and was forsaken.

cartoon shows haven’t always sucked. Back in the late 80’s and early 90’s, Capcom produced a great deal of entertaining games with licensed Disney themes for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Many of them were quite challenging, but Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers is one of the titles that I feel had the best balance of fun and challenge in a platformer. While it’s not a big challenge if you are a platformer junkie, it is still fun and is a great game for mid-range players… The most important feature to me is the 2-player simultaneous gameplay. In fact, the game isn’t terribly exciting when you play it by yourself. However, you have a buddy team up with you, the game can be a blast.

fighting games for the NES, River City Ransom. The characters in the NES version of Super Dodge Ball look almost exactly like the characters from River City Ransom (the screenshot on the right is from the NES version). Let’s talk about gameplay. At first, you’ll probably be very confused. Like River City Ransom, you have two buttons: pressing them both together makes you jump, tapping in a direction twice makes you run. On offense, the A button passes the ball to a teammate, and the B button throws the ball at your opponent. On defense, the A button makes you duck (to avoid incoming throws) and the B button lets you catch an incoming throw. Catching balls thrown by your opponent is tough, as it requires perfect timing toand many physicians transfuse patients before surgery to reduce perioperative complications. The Transfusion Alternatives Pre-Operatively in Sickle Cell Disease (TAPS) trial provides evidence supporting this practice and recommends that patients with haemoglobin (Hb) SS and HbSβ° thalassemia with Hb \<9 g/dl undergoing low- and moderate-risk surgery receive pre-operative simple transfusion aiming for a Hb level of 10 g/dl[@ref14]. The risk of alloimmunization persists despite extended red cell phenotyping (standard practice for SCD patients in many centres in the UK and US)[@ref15], but the emergence and broader utilization of DNA-based testing offer the possibility of further diminishing this risk[@ref16]. Increasing the use of blood transfusion results in secondary iron overload, and in patients with SCD, the liver is most at risk. Acute pain crises probably the most frequent complication in

great hope for the possibility of disrupting this region and specifically targeting erythroid function using genome-editing technology (such zinc-finger nucleases or CRISPR-Cas 9). Another approach of reducing BCL11A levels is knocking down its expression by RNA interference, further enhanced by the development of novel vectors that can restrict the effect to the erythroid lineage. One could also 'de-repress' gamma-globin expression by forcing an interaction between the β-locus control region and the γ gene using a synthetic DNA-binding protein[@ref40]. The last decade has also seen considerable advances in gene therapy for SCD using lentiviral vectors (anti-sickling β-globin or γ-increasing) as autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The most advanced of these is the anti-sickling β-globin vector containing the HbAT87Q mutation, first tested in a patient with transfusion-dependent HbE/β-thalassemia[@ref41].

1/4$. Finally, we have $$P(AB \cap AC \cap BC | A=x) = \iint_{S/x} P(AC \cap BC | A = x, B = y) \frac{1}{2|S|} dS(y),$$ where $S/x$ denotes the hemisphere of $S$ centred on $x$. Now, $P(AC \cap BC|A=x,B=y)$ corresponds to the fraction of $S$ covered by the intersection of $S/x$ and $S/y$. If we define a spherical coordinate system on $S$ with $x$ corresponding to polar angle $\theta = 0$, then this fraction is given by $1/2 - \theta(y)/(2 \pi)$ for $0 \leq \theta(y) \leq \pi/2$ (i.e. $\theta(y)$ in $S/x$), and hence $$P(AB \cap AC \cap BC | A=x) = \frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{4\pi}$$ (where I skip performing the double integral above here explicitly for brevity).

I am so tired of hearing this "if we don't have vouchers, that means parents can't choose where their children go to school." Yes, they can. This is just about whether they (and primarily wealthy people) can get tax money to partially subsidize their choice. By Voice of Utah's logic, only if you are rich enough to pay taxes AND can afford private school is it okay to go choose for your child to go somewhere other than a public school. My point was that it is not an entitlement to have greater flexibility in school choice. Using "entitlement" and calling this a new government program is rhetoric trying to turn this issue back on conservatives. Public schools constantly get more money with not much to show for it. They areinstance write a method like : [ConditionalAttribute("DEBUG")] public static void MyLovelyDebugInfoMethod(string message) { Console.WriteLine("This message was brought to you by your debugger : "); Console.WriteLine(message); } any call you make to this method inside your own code will only be executed in debug mode. If you build your project in release mode, even call to the "MyLovelyDebugInfoMethod" will be ignored and dumped out of your binary.

Movie "Deep Blue" - DVD Movies Encyclopedia Short description of the movie "Deep Blue" Alastair Fothergill's nature documentary Deep Blue consists of 90 minutes of footage of undersea creatures — living, surviving, fighting, and dying. Similar to like-minded documentaries such as Winged Migration and MicroCosmos, Deep Blue features footage from locations throughout the world. The great British actor Michael Gambon provides the narration, which favors involving the viewer emotionally over providing enlightening factual information on the creatures. The 22 segments of the film conclude with footage of how man has affected life under the sea. This film was originally produced for the British television series The Blue Planet. According to the filmmakers, some of the creatures seen here have never been previously recorded on film.

to use a full polymorphic dispatch, which is slower. But then again, at that point you're comparing apples to oranges: a non-private, polymorphic call to a private call that's monomorphic by definition. It's more fair to compare the two kinds of monomorphic calls (virtual and private), and in that case you'll probably find that the difference is minuscule, if it's even detectible. I just did a quick JMH benchmark to compare (a) accessing a field directly, (b) accessing it via a public getter and (c) accessing it via a private getter. All three took the same amount of time. Of course, uber-micro benchmarks are very hard to get right, because the JIT can do such wonderful things with optimizations. Then again, that's kind of the point: The JIT doesthat each $Y_i$ has the initial topology w.r.t. the $g_{i,j}$ ($j \in I_i$). Then $X$ has the initial topology w.r.t. the maps $g_{i,j} \circ f_i$ ($i \in I, j \in I_i$) iff $X$ has the initial topology w.r.t. the $f_i$ ($i \in I$). Proof: Suppose that $X$ has the initial topology w.r.t. the $f_i$. Call this topology $\mathcal{T}$. All $g_{i,j}$ are continuous (part of being initial of the topology on $Y_i$) so all $g_{i,j} \circ f_i$ are continuous. Suppose that $\mathcal{T}'$ is another topology on $X$ that makes all $g_{i,j} \circ f_i$ continuous. Then consider the maps $f'_i : (X,\mathcal{T}') \rightarrow Y_i$, defined by $f'_i(x) = f_i(x)$. So we have $g_{i,j} \circ f'_i = g_{i,j} \circ f_i$ for all relevant indices. By assumption all $g_{i,j} \circ f'_i = g_{i,j} \circ f_i : (X,\mathcal{T}') \rightarrow

Otitis media (OM) is a highly prevalent pediatric disease worldwide and is the primary cause for emergency room visits by children (Infante-Rivand and Fernandez, Epidemiol. Rev., 15: 444-465,1993). Recent statistics indicate that 24.5 million physician office visits were made for OM in 1990, representing a greater than 200% increase over those reported in the 1980's. While rarely associated with mortality any longer, the morbidity associated with OM is significant. Hearing loss is a common problem associated with this disease, often times affecting a child's behavior, education and development of language skills (Baldwin, Am. J. Otol., 14: 601-604, 1993; Hunter et al., Ann. Otol. Rhinol. Laryngol. Suppl., 163: 59-61, 1994; Teele et al., J. Infect. Dis., 162:685-694, 1990).

Progress in vaccine development is most advanced for Streptococcus pneumoniae, the primary causative agent of acute OM (AOM), as evidenced by the recent approval and release of a seven-valent capsular-conjugate vaccine, PREVNAR® (Eskola and Kilpi, Pedriatr.

Discussion {#Sec7} ========== Efficient sensing by the innate immune system is the first step towards an effective antiviral immune response. In an effort to determine which innate sensing pathways are critical for retrovirus infections *in vivo*, mice deficient in various innate sensors were infected with murine retroviruses such as MuLV. Previously, it was shown that TLR7 and MyD88 were required for a potent antiretroviral humoral immune response \[[@CR11],[@CR12]\]. However, T cell responses were only partially affected by MyD88 signaling, and nopost infection) viral loads were increased in MyD88^−/−^ mice, consistent with a weakened humoral immune response. We recently provided evidence that NK cell responses could significantly inhibit acute FV replication *in vivo* \[[@CR14]\]. Thus, our findings showing enhanced acute FV replication in TLR3^−/−^ mice are consistent with a strong impact of TLR3 on cytotoxic NK cell responses. TLR3 is strongly expressed by mDCs, whereas its expression is weak in murine B cell subsets \[[@CR32]\]. In contrast, TLR7 is highly expressed by follicular B, marginal zone B, Peyer´s patch B and B-1B cells and the expression level in mDCs is rather low \[[@CR32]\]. This may explain that TLR7 is required for efficient antibody responses \[[@CR11],[@CR12]\] as it might directly influence B cell responses and not NK or T cell

This is latest in a series of arson fires that's plagued Glendale in recent months. Glendale Police "The majority of these fires have been as a result of setting a dresser or a mattress, or some sort of household items that's been left on a curbside or an alleyway,"said Glendale Police spokeswoman Tahnee Lightfoot. "And it's occurred during the nighttime hours between approximately 10 p.m. and 4 a.m." Police still don't have any leads on a suspect or suspects.

is a lot easier than you may think to find a good hostel to stay in and determine the good from the bad. It may seem like a bit of pot luck or hit and miss, after all you have just a minute or two to glance over a place and determine whether it will be a good place to stay based on first impressions, but it is possible with a bit of practice and knowledge of what to look for beforehand. A lot of the time whether you like a hostel or not will be down to your own personal taste and needs, but there are still some things you should keep in mind when you are checking a new place out. Location, location, location. One of the most attractiveclose to a 7/11 or grocery shop for example. These aren’t essential of course, but they can make life much simpler for you. Another thing to consider is the hostels proximity to local bars, clubs or night markets. Any of these three can sometimes make sleep next to impossible until at least 0300 either from outside noise or drunken travellers stumbling into the dorm, turning the light on and singing at the top of their lungs. Neither of these is good! Security. Probably one of the most important things to consider is if the hostel has good security or not because at the end of the day you don’t want your stuff stolen. The exact details can vary wildly as hostels can be uniquely different from place to place, but

and final year of law school in 1972, he ran for a seat in the Oregon House of Representatives as a Republican, to represent Yamhill County. He won the five-person primary, and then won the general election in November. After winning the seat, Democrats challenged Bunn's residency in the district, since he was attending law school in Salem. The challenge failed, and he was sworn in as a 26-year-old legislator in January 1973, while still a law student. Bunn then wrote his third year law school paper on residency requirements. He graduated cum laude from Willamette with a juris doctorate degree in 1973. Following law school Bunn began practicing law in Newberg. There he built a practice that expanded to as many as eight lawyers and two offices. Hechanging the state's certificate of initial mastery (CIM) to a program with seven separate CIMs, but the Oregon State Board of Education declined to adopt his proposal. In 2001, potential ethics violations arose over use of a state cell phone and state vehicle for personal use. Soon after, a previously tabled bill in the legislature that would change Bunn's office to an appointed position in lieu of an election was reintroduced. The legislation never made it into law. While an ethics investigation was pending, it came to light in 2001 that Bunn was delinquent on almost $15,000 in property taxes. The taxes were owed in two counties, some as far back as 1997, with one property facing foreclosure by the county. County records disclosed a pattern of late payments

The electronic states and the operators acting on them for a given Hamiltonian have to be mapped to the qubits comprising a quantum computer and the operators for them by an appropriate transformation.[@bib:4294] The Jordan–Wigner (JW)[@bib:4710] and Bravyi–Kitaev (BK)[@bib:4293] transformations are often used for quantum chemistry calculations.

Evolving complex songs and lifelong learning From an earlier study in a small number of species, we knew that open-ended learners know more unique syllables than those whose learning window closes sooner. This implied that song complexity and the learning window could influence one another’s evolution, but we had not yet shown that this was the case. To investigate this possibility, we collected published field data to test whether the length of the song-learning window affected the evolution of song features such as song complexity, measured by the number of unique syllables that a bird sings.

The trial was interrupted and the court gave deadlines for the filing of new pleadings, issued a discovery schedule and then recessed the trial. On November 24, 1992, plaintiffs filed an "Amended and Supplemental Petition." In this new pleading, the plaintiffs alleged defaults on rental payments beginning in September 1987 and prayed for an acceleration of payments under the lease for the entire ten year period, amounting to a total of $303,485.00. The trial resumed on December 6, 1992, and the court rendered judgment in favor of the plaintiffs in the amount of $32,400.00. In its written reasons, the court explained the basis for this sum as follows: I find thatdistrict court to clarify its ruling and declare if it has, in fact, determined the judgment to be satisfied in accordance with the views expressed herein. Otherwise, the judge should conduct a hearing to determine whether the judgment has been satisfied, and if not, to compute the amount due.

recently using dMRI *in vivo*. Using the dMRI technique the AC was reconstructed in healthy subjects, in adolescents born preterm and in adolescents with bipolar disorder ([@R11]; [@R38]; [@R41]; [@R47]). Interestingly, one of the dMRI studies showed that AC fibers can be tracked all the way into the occipital and parietal lobes in humans, suggesting a wider distribution of the AC axons in humans than in primates ([@R41]). To the best of our knowledge, only one dMRI study, conducted in our laboratory, has explored the AC in patients diagnosed with chronic schizophrenia ([@R12]) but not in earlier stages of the disease. DMRI is a well established, noninvasive method to explore brain white matter integrity, and has been applied to thousands of studies, of which about 200 have focused onwith higher surface area, when compared with the material synthesized using the decomposition reaction. While the theoretical discharge capacity characteristics of SVO are quite high, much lower utilization of SVO is typically attained, especially at high discharge rates due to high particle-to-particle resistance and electrical resistivity of SVO. The internal cell resistance increases with progressing discharge, resulting in a poor power capability in Lithium/SVO cells. While attempts have been made to improve the electrochemical performance of the SVO electrodes by optimizing the synthesis process and by introduction of substitution atoms, a need exists enhanced discharge capacity and rate capability.

can have a negative impact on RA outcome, and thus a detrimental cycle develops. Among patients with RA, high LH (as measured by the Arthritis Helplessness Index \[AHI\]) has been shown to be associated with less education, low self-esteem, high anxiety, depression, and greater impairment in activities of daily living ([@b18]). High LH (as measured by the more concise Rheumatology Attitudes Index \[RAI\] \[[@b19]\]) has been found to be associated with more pain, fatigue, and stiffness in RA patients ([@b20]). There is a relative paucity of literature regarding the relationship between social and psychosocial factors and their impact on disease outcome in patients with RA. A recent publication reported that depression in RA patients in California was associated with both SES and disability, between which there was a significant interactionmoderational and mediational ([@b23]). Therefore, further investigation of how these factors may interact is necessary. In addition, further work is needed to determine whether similar observations are replicated in other study populations and with other measures of disease outcome. Most of the studies cited above have been conducted with patients who have established RA. However, it is also clinically important to consider how social and psychosocial factors are associated with disease outcome in patients with a recent symptom onset. It is difficult to distinguish RA from other similar conditions in the very early stages of the disease. However, patients can easily be classified as having IP, the broader group of diseases of which RA is the major constituent. Therefore, the aim of this investigation of patients with IP was

area-level categorical variable, based on the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) 2007 ([@b27]). In the IMD, the UK is divided into "super output areas," with a minimum population of 1,000 (mean 1,500). Information on income, employment, health, education, barriers to services, crime, and living environment is used to assign a deprivation score to each super output area. These scores are then ranked across the country. For this study, we used postal codes to assign each patient to a nationwide deprivation rank and then to a nationally-determined quartile of deprivation (IMD1 = least deprived, IMD4 = most deprived). RAI --- We measured LH using the RAI ([Figure 2](#fig02){ref-type="fig"}). This 5-item measure of patients\' beliefs about their illness, developed from the longer AHI ([@b18]), has been validated as a convenient and acceptable measureself-evident. If, in circumstances like those in Barnes,[1] the anonymity promotes impartial decision making, that result is likely to hold equally true in less celebrated cases. The virtue of the jury system lies in the random summoning from the community of twelve "indifferent" persons — "not appointed till the hour of trial" — to decide a dispute, and in their subsequent, unencumbered return to their normal pursuits. See 3 W. Blackstone, Commentaries *378. The lack of continuity in their service tends to insulate jurors from recrimination for their decisions and to prevent the occasional mistake of one panel from being perpetuated in future deliberations. Because the system contemplates that jurors will inconspicuously fade back into the community once their tenure is completed, anonymity would seem entirely consistent with, rather

They nevertheless contend that "[t]he traditional methods of attempting to guarantee both sides a fair trial in the face of potentially prejudicial news coverage has heretofore always consisted of careful screening of jurors and of making available to the defendants, if they choose, such remedies as continuance, change of venue and/or mistrial." (Defs. Memo at 8). The suggestion that the recited remedies are solely a matter of defendants' choice is questionable, to say the least, and the recognition that the prejudicial publicity in this case may require a mistrial is a tacit recognition of the necessity for sequestration. *228 The defendants' inconsistent view ofdefendants' right to a fair trial and to an impartial jury, will be realized.

wrong. Undoubtedly he knows all that. He knows that eliminating the estate tax, a mainstay of his plan, will benefit the rich enormously and almost nobody else. He also knows that when he claims economic growth alone will erase the deficit, without raising taxes, he is inventing impossible numbers. As The National Memo’s Howard Hill demonstrated yesterday, the assumptions behind his claims are ridiculous. For the numbers to work, he would have to create not 12 million jobs, as he promised to do by 2016, but 162 million — more than the total current U.S. workforce. Or else the jobs created would have to pay more than $443,000 per year on average, which is even less likely than Rafalca winning the dressage medal at the next Summer Olympics. At the sametime, Romney accused the president of increasing the federal debt by an amount that is “almost as much … as all prior presidents combined.” This charge, which he leveled before, is patently false and by now Romney must know it. The prior debt, mostly run up by George W. Bush and his Republican congressional cronies, stood above $10 trillion when Obama took office. The debt is now just over $16 trillion, mostly due to costs incurred by Bush and by Obama’s successful effort to prevent a Depression. Having essentially disavowed the health care reforms that were his sole significant achievement in his single term in elected office, the former Massachusetts governor suddenly claimed ownership of Romneycare. Presumably, this will make him more appealing to swing voters, too. But he

Shortening has very different melting qualities from butter. It stays solid for longer. Use cake flour instead of all-purpose flour, it soaks up a bit more liquid so it helps reducing spread. you also need a more acidic dough against spread, says Corriher (sadly, she doesn't explain why). Use a baking powder-based recipe, not baking soda. With that pumpkin puree, you can also slightly increase the flour amount while keeping the rest the same. chill not just the dough in a bowl, chill the baking sheet with the cookies on it.

This is important because the files most people use everyday - videos, mp3s, advanced graphics files and zip files - are compressed files and thus unable to be compressed any further. While many SSDs on the market achieve faster speeds by using file compression, many of the most common file types can't be compressed, resulting in SSDs that often deliver drastically slower speeds than originally advertised. With the advanced technology of a Crucial SSD, however, our advertised speeds are tied to real world use. Crucial--quality you can depend on.
